The directive from Abbott doesn’t specifically mention rainbow crosswalks but said Texans expect their taxpayer dollars to be used wisely and not used to advance political agendas on Texas roadways. Read More👉 ebx.sh/OxHDdi

How it feels driving on I-35 in Northeast San Antonio amid the double decker freeway construction

“Hey Dad! Tell us about what 2025 was like.” Me: “First, there was this thing called a Labubu. It all went down hill from there.”

It’s less than 10 minutes until the polls close. I’m at the Rolando Pablos campaign. Supporters of Pablos are beginning to enter the watch party. @texaspublicradio.bsky.social

Your TPR News Team is ready to cover the San Antonio City Council Runoff Election tonight. Go to tpr.org for the latest results.

Listen. I know there ain’t no way a Public Safety Alert was just issued to tell people about I-35 being closed. They should use the alert when it’s actually open.

I was not expecting The Minions to predict “Pope Bob” but here we are.

A live look at all religion reporters and social media producers:

When did the Vatican get a marching band?!

You’re not wrong, Michael.

To quote someone in our newsroom: “Holy Smokes!”

It’s election night and the polls have closed in San Antonio. Please go to tpr.org or this link to monitor our live results.

Sometimes I get an idea in my head and if I don’t put it out into the ether, I’ll explode. Anyway, Here’s the Godfather if it was set in San Antonio:

I have a very important decision to make:

Someone in our statewide news meeting today said very casually: “It’s gonna be May.” I’d like to thank Austin’s KUT in advance for putting NSYNC in my head all day.

Y’all, all I did was WALK OUTSIDE and I was handed three bags of Fiesta medals from San Antonio College and CPS Energy and an aguas fresca! Fiesta time is here. VIVA! 🎊🎉

As a gay man, this is not what I expected when someone said we were entering a Bear Market.

San Antonio needs this sign on every street corner.

That moment when you’re a journalist and the United States Secretary of Defense is accidentally sending you classified war plans in a group chat and the Vice President says he hates bailing out Europe again.

I’d love to see a School House Rock song try to explain any of *gestures to literally everything*

Why are there so many bad decisions coming out of Dallas lately? 1. Mavericks trade Luka 2. Southwest ends free bags 3. The Cowboys in general

Suddenly, all the drama over taxation, tariffs, and trade routes in Star Wars Episode 1 makes sense now.

This wind in San Antonio be like:

Meanwhile, in San Antonio:

The viejitas at the taco shop that call you “mijo” or mija” are the real MVP’s of San Antonio.

About 250 people gathered outside San Antonio City Hall on Monday as part of President’s Day Protests held nationwide.

Taco Palenque on San Pedro is slapping on that 50¢ egg surcharge for breakfast tacos. 😭

This thunder and rain is lovely.

My boss: “Hey Joey, can you send out a push notification about the snow, winter storm warning and road closures?” Me: 🫡

Oh god no.

Is anyone else getting an absurd amount of religious reels on Facebook featuring AI Jesus? … or other fake reels showing false images of the entirety LA on fire? It’s every reel I’ve even seen two Jesuses fighting each other. One of them was an evil Jesus. I’m so confused. Here’s an example:

Sound On: The fog this morning in San Antonio felt like a trip into Silent Hill. 📢📢📢📢

I remember 2024 like it was yesterday.

Y’all remember that time exactly five years ago when we were all excited for 2020 and a new decade? Lmao.

The City of San Antonio: “Popping fireworks is illegal within the city limits.” Meanwhile, The Westside:

It’s December 30th. At 86° in San Antonio it’s 21° higher than the average temperature for this date.

I love how at Christmastime your family be like “Oh we didn’t make that many tamales. Just 12 dozen.”

This is wild. Disney & ESPN doing a nearly live CGI animation of the Spurs and Knick game on Christmas Day. Mickey Mouse is playing for the Spurs and Goofy is playing for the Knicks.

A benefit of working in Public Radio: Random performances that are LIVE on-air from our studios. 😍

Yesterday I attended a BlueSky ONA webinar that included a member of the Bsky team. The takeaway I valued the most was knowing bluesky does not deprioritize posts with links. All posts are treated the same. Other platforms have throttled links, so it’s refreshing to know they’re seen here.

“Off I-35 just passed the construction…” is probably the most vague direction I’ve ever heard.

It's going to freeze tomorrow, so every abuelita in San Antonio gonna be making soup tonight.

A piece of advice: If you have a bad day, go out and get a taco. It won’t solve your problem, but now you at least have a taco.

Here's an idea for next year: Krampus River Parade

And just like that, San Antonio has a new annual tradition: Krampus parades.

Yall. Today I learned that the official Neighborhood Association name for the northern part of Downtown San Antonio is "Urbanista"

Krampus is coming to Southtown on Thursday night. Demonic portal not included ... but there is a shirt.

Cabello Havrda joined an increasingly crowded mayoral race, even after Councilmember John Courage dropped out earlier this week. She is now competing with two of her council colleagues — Adriana Rocha Garcia and Manny Peláez — along with former city and state officials and local entrepreneurs.
